Novel Approaches to Enhancing Sustainable Adhesive System Solutions in Contemporary Book Binding: An Overview

This paper contributes to eco-efficient and sustainable book binding production. Higher book binding manufacturing efficiency-with less waste and reduce energy consumption-has been achieved with higher inputs of natural biodegradable sources into graphic arts materials through the eco-labeled paper grades and the use of eco-advanced adhesive system solutions. Nowadays, scientific sources on non-toxic polymers and resins, combined with current scientific knowledge and production development, are closely related to sustainability. Hence, advanced and improved adhesive system solution technologies should fulfill the needs of suppliers and customers who are involved in the International Framework for ISO/TC130 workflows. These strategic partnerships provide possibilities in the context of "closed-loop recycling models", which spark and advance the discussions of stakeholders. It is very important that the novel engineered biodegradable adhesive system solutions provide productivity-increasing and cost-effective solution performances by saving money and improving the performed binding activities. Without doubt, the task of the scientific community is to continue to provide responsive and comprehensive approaches to fulfilling stakeholders' specific needs through standardized quality assurance, with the emphasis on book-binders.
